Neal McDonough Fired from Scoundrels and Charlie Sheen Leaving Two and a Half Men?

Last month, ABC announced that actor Neal McDonough was leaving after only three days of filming the upcoming show “Scoundrels.” Could there be something more behind the release? Well, you know there must be or I would not blog about it! Word on the street is that McDonough was fired for refusing to have television sex with co-star Virginia Madsen. And, here is the really crazy part, at least by Hollywood standards – it is because he felt the scenes were in conflict with his Catholic beliefs. Now, if you are thinking this is not true or just a publicity … Continue reading

Charlie Sheen and Ellen DeGeneres Prepping for Kids

Not together, though, that would make for an interesting blog… and potential TV movie. Comedian turned talk show hostess Ellen DeGeneres and her partner Portia de Rossi are reportedly adding to their family. According to Star magazine, de Rossi plans to undergo fertility treatments in a few months. Sources tell the magazine that the couple would love a son, but will be happy with “any healthy baby.” News of de Rossi’s pending IVF treatments comes as DeGeneres confirms that she will step away from her talk show when her contract ends in 2010. In previous interviews, the famous female couple … Continue reading

Charlie Sheen’s New Boys and Guy Ritchie’s New Girl

What a difference a year can make. While some maintain he doesn’t deserve happiness, Charlie Sheen is having one heck of a 2008. Not only did he cut ties with former wife Denise Richards (though, when you are divorced from the other parent of your children, are you ever completely rid of them?), the same woman he dubbed “a pathetic example of a human being,” but Sheen also married his girlfriend Brooke Mueller and three months after the wedding announced that she was pregnant. Now, on top of all that, Sheen just confirmed that Mueller is expecting twins. Twin boys … Continue reading

Will the Third Time be the Charm for Charlie Sheen?

Charlie Sheen has tied the knot yet again. The star of “Two and a Half Men” walked down the aisle for the third time last night, according to his rep. The 42-year-old actor wed fiancée Brooke Mueller, a real estate investor, who he has been dating for more than a year. The couple got engaged in Costa Rica last June, after Sheen presented the 30-year-old blonde with a $500,000 custom-designed 11-carat yellow diamond and platinum ring. Mueller may have gotten the bling and the Reem Acra wedding gown she wanted, but it doesn’t sound as though she got the wedding … Continue reading

Celeb Baby Jam

He’s the Hollywood star who infamously said, “Women should be in charge of raising kids,” then sued his ex-wife for custody of their two daughters. Despite his view on child rearing, good ol’ Charlie Sheen added two more kids to his brood over the weekend. According to reports, the “Two and a Half Men” star and his wife Brooke Mueller Sheen welcomed twin boys Saturday night. The boys, named Max and Bob, are the first for the couple, who married in May 2008. The twins, who weren’t due until mid-April, are the first boys born to Sheen. The 43-year-old actor … Continue reading

Courage Mountain (1990)

I love the book “Heidi.” I’ve probably read it eight times and would read it again right now, if I was sure where my copy was. When I saw the movie “Courage Mountain” at the video rental store, I was curious, but also apprehensive. As a “Heidi” fan, I wondered – would this movie, based on a sequel that doesn’t exist, do justice to the original, or would I be disappointed? Juliette Caton stars as Heidi, now fifteen. Clara’s grandmother passed away and left Heidi some money. Grandfather thinks Heidi should use the money to pay for her education, but … Continue reading

Hollywood’s Biggest Losers

Apparently, it takes one to know one. Honestly, I don’t see why Charlie Sheen and Denise Richards ever divorced. The two are so much alike–they were meant for each other. A few days ago Sheen made news when he married Brooke Mueller. Now the actor is back in the headlines again accusing Richards of using her new reality show to try to sabotage his wedding to Mueller. For the record Sheen’s wedding went off without a hitch at his Beverly Hills home. His demands for the type of ceremony and reception he wanted were met by his new wife and … Continue reading
